Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage - Skill Point FAQ

******************
Needed Information
******************
This faq is meant to help you find all of the skill points in Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage.
A skill point is a special challenge that comes along in some of the levels.
There are 16 skill points in all. When you complete one of these challenges you
will here a chime sound.To view all the skill points that you've gotten, press
start, go to the guidebook, then when you get to Winter Tundra (or whatever
the current world that your up to is) you'll see a SKILLPOINT > sign.
If you press right you'll be at the skill points screen. But if you haven't
gotten any skill points you won't be able to access this menu.
The rewards for getting skill points are when you get 8, 12, 15 and 16 you'll
be awarded a life each time. Also when you've gotten 8 and 16, each you will
be awarded a surprise. when you get 16 or 8 go to the skill point pages and
press X to see the "surprise". But all that aside I strongly recommend that
you get the power up in Dragon Shores that requires 64 orbs and all 10,000
treasure to complete these tasks.
